MEMORANDUM
TO: The Honorable Mayor and Board of City Commissioners
FROM: Mark W. Brace, CPPB, Buyer 15
DATE: 30 May, 1996
RE: PURCHASE OF COLOR TELEVISION INSPECTION AND SEALING SYSTEM
The Wastewater Department has requested a Color Television
Inspection and Sealing System which was approved in this year's
budget. The Department of Water & Sewers for the City of Hialeah,
Florida, had sent out proposals for exactly the same system as
requested and awarded the purchase of this system to Cues, Inc. of
Orlando, Florida. I have on file written permission from the City
of Hialeah and Cues, Inc. to piggyback from this awarded proposal
for the same price of $117,790. 00.
Please refer to the attached Memorandum, dated May 30, 1996, from
Donald Carter, Finance Supervisor (through Wanda Horton, Finance
Director) , to Ellis Shapiro, City Manager, which explains how this
system was originally budgeted and which further outlines their
recommendation for acquisition of the requested system.
ACTION REQUESTED
The Honorable Mayor and Board of City Commissioners authorize (1)
transfer of $87,790. 00 from Contingency in the Waste Water Fund to
cover the capital expense for the acquisition of a Color Television
Inspection and Sealing System, and (2) authorize the purchase of
the System from Cues, Inc. for the total price of $117,790. 00.

RE: Outright Purchase -vs- Lease Purchase of Televising Truck
The City has currently budgeted $ 30, 000 for the lease purchase of
a Televising Truck in the Waste Water Fund. It is the Finance
Department's opinion it would be more advantageous for the City to
outright purchase this equipment instead of leasing. Unfortunately,
this item was not included in the Mid Year Budget Amendment but due
to the savings that purchasing versus leasing would realize, it is
only fair to the rate payers to seek approval from the City
Commission for the purchase. An outright purchase would save the
City $ 15,500.
The price of the Televising Truck is $ 117,790. Presently, the
Contingency Account in the Waste Water Fund has $ 552, 346.33
available, of which only $ 87,790 is needed for the purchase.
Therfore, we recommend a transfer from Contingency of $ 87,790 for
the purchase of the Televising Truck.
